Baldur's Gate Syndrome... A dictionary knows this word

I'm in a strong belief the so-called BG Syndrome is what any of us has. But it seems such a word combination exists in an urban dictionary. Although the meaning is a little bit different it is still hilarious.

Baldurs gate syndrome
The act of constantly quick saving while playing an RPG because you played the original Baldurs Gate game which had a tendency to bug out every five or so minutes.
Per: Make sure you save a lot because when I played Operation Anchorage in Fallout 3 the last quest bugged out for me.

Putte: I suffer from Baldurs gate syndrome so I do that all the time.

After finding this dictionary I've checked several BG-related words and although it gives the standard meanings to such words as Elminster and Drizzt, as well as the game title itself, some word definitions are just LMAO. Here you go then.

Khalid
Name: Khalid meaning immortal. people with this name are amazingly handsome they have a high intelligence level, and are very well endowled. Khalid's are quite modest. Usually wearing hoodies they can get quite aggresive and kill.
Khalid just took a knife out and killed someone over a slice of cake

Drow is "word" spelled backward.

Therefore, a "drow" is a word that becomes a DIFFERENT word, if spelled backward. This is not to be confused with a palindrome, which is a word that reads the SAME backward and forward. Both definitions can be extended to phrases or sentences.

This term was coined by Dr. Benjamin Whang, the father of Suzanne Whang, host of HGTV's #1 show, "House Hunters."
"Stressed" is a drow, because when spelled backward, it becomes "desserts."

"Diaper" is a drow, because when spelled backward, it becomes "repaid."

Demogorgon
De·mo·gor·gon
Function: Noun
1: a: A gay man who acts heterosexual and has leftist leanings b: A gay man who acts heterosexual, usually communist or socialist, with the attitude of an elitest
Man 1: Dude! I totally banged this hot guy today. But, he was talking about state ownership and all of this weird shit...

Man 2: Did he act really fruity?

Man 1: No, he acted almost straight...

Man 2: Dude! You totally banged a demogorgon!

Man 1: Did I, man? Awesome

    I don't remember any problem with bugs in the original. Libelous.

    Oh man, I sure do. I saved constantly for fear of the CTD!

    Huh. My brother and I both played it constantly back before I heard of this thing called a 'patch' and I could've sworn we never had any issues. I guess I just lucked out.

    I think it depended a lot on the system. I replaced my computer shortly after I started and the newer machine was more stable. But it wasn't really fixed until it was patched.

    This is a fun game: Guess which forum member's name is, according to the Urban Dictionary, defined thus:
    "To insert a tentacled appendage into the ocular orifice of a victim, impregnating their skull with squid eggs."
    (Hint: I'd always thought it was a Blackadder reference)
